Boy that was funny to watch. Bet they don't even know why they would speed up when they hit the brakes.

2WD...4WD...doesn't matter on that stuff...

Turbo...is it because the weight of the car/friction melts and refreezes the surface under the tires?...

No matter what you have, 2wd 4wd or a dam tank!! when there is ice you stop when you stop!!

But if you want any control at all, stay off the break!

I will drive in snow any day before I venture out in ice.

If I wake up and see ice on the road,
I just call work tell them I'll see them the next day
and then pull the covers over my head to go back to sleep. ;)

Anything but ice, but people crash here even when it's sunny.
